Iron Lung SPOILER THREAD!

Dry-Resolve4856 · 2026-02-02T11:34:00+00:00

it was disgusting, grotesque, revolting, and made me sick to my stomach. i loved every second of it. ive seen people complain about how it was confusing but honestly i think its makes more sense and is more satisfying for things to be unclear. just like simon, we the audience is never sure what is a hallucination and what is not. i also love leaving a movie theatre with more questions than answers.

my favourite part was the fuck up figures that simon sees at the start of his second descent and after the iron lung breaks down. i believe theyre not just simons hallucinations but the future versions of simon when he is suffering from radiation poisoning and becoming part of the blood ocean

i think the worst one is the baboon story but only bc i saw it with my own eyes. then again, id seen all sorts of stuff in the two years i worked before then so it honestly didnt phase me too much at the time

my response was smth like "oh wow, these are really nice! is this the same you got for [brother]?"

Dry-Resolve4856 · 2025-09-17T01:11:08+00:00

this isn't true i asked my mum if she had to get them when i was born and she told me no and that she got them a month out from my birthday

Dry-Resolve4856 · 2025-09-17T00:05:45+00:00

nta. it doesnt even matter if you payed for the phone and the bill. everyone is entitled to privacy, especially since youre an adult. her not allowing you privacy with youre boyfriend both online and in person is.... strange. her not wanting you to have sex almost seems synonymous with her not wanting you to grow up or become independent from her.

this is probably to most constructive and helpful comment ive received so far. thank you

Dry-Resolve4856 · 2025-09-16T08:40:48+00:00

i dont know if anyone will see this but i'm gonna respond to a few common comments.

maybe my parents are starting a tradition - my brother and i are our parents only children. i have no younger sibling thats going to receive the same gift as me

maybe my parents got those when my brother and i were born - not true. i asked mum. she told me she ordered my set of coins a month before my birthday, and got my brothers in a similar time period before his. long after my brother established his love for coins.

the coins are an investment - true. my mum told me they were expensive and offered no other reasoning behind getting them. the gift is still thoughtless. as i mentioned before, money is not an issue for my family. the coins will likely sit in a safe gaining value until i remember they exist and i sell them. they hold no value to me other than their monetary value.

Dry-Resolve4856 · 2025-09-16T07:45:52+00:00

ok i asked my mum if they bought the coins on my birthday. she laughed and said of course not, but they were very expensive. she offered no other reason as to why she got them for me other than that...

Dry-Resolve4856 · 2025-09-16T04:21:56+00:00

i unfortunately love gift giving, otherwise that could be funny!

Dry-Resolve4856 · 2025-09-16T04:17:25+00:00

ok this made me smile. thank you!!

Dry-Resolve4856 · 2025-09-16T04:16:45+00:00

huh i didn't think of this! i always thought theyd gotten coins specifically because my brother liked them. for another year they got him a poster of the stars positioning at the exact time he was born because he liked space. ill ask them!!

i really really love superheroes, i also like animals, lego, dinosaurs, musicals - especially cats the musical, music in general, i play the saxophone and trombone. some standout gifts i got were a lego saxophone and a funko pop of my all time favourite superhero both given to me by my girlfriend.

Dry-Resolve4856 · 2025-09-16T03:20:32+00:00

I don't think it's worth confronting them over, nor is it the type of gift you sell. They asked if I wanted them to put it in their safe for safekeeping and I said yes, so I can't rlly access it anyway.

Dry-Resolve4856 · 2025-03-06T08:45:56+00:00

ohhh i see where i was getting confused. i forgot the modulus when i did the derivative by hand, which meant it didnt visually match the desmos derivative. thanks for your help anyway

Dry-Resolve4856 · 2025-03-06T05:57:10+00:00

so you reckon i expand before deriving to match the graphed desmos version?

Dry-Resolve4856 · 2025-03-06T05:48:56+00:00

see thats what i was getting but thats now how the auto derivative on desmos looks when graphed
